No Sooner Was The Stout Puritan Commonwealth Of Massachusetts Firmly Planted Than It Began Rapidly To Throw Out Branches In All Directions. With Every Succeeding Year The Long, Thin, Sinuous Line Of Settlements Stretched Farther And Farther Away To The Northeast, Fringing The Wild Shores Of The Atlantic With Houses And Farms Gathered Together At The Mouths Or On The Banks Of The Rivers, And With The Homes Of Hardy Fishermen Which Clustered In Little Groups Beneath The Shelter Of The Rocky Headlands. The Extension Of These Plantations Was Chiefly Along The Coast, But There Was Also A Movement Up The River Courses Toward The West And Into The Interior. [more]

Henry Cabot Lodge (May 12, 1850 – November 9, 1924) was an American Republican Senator and historian from Massachusetts. A PhD in history from Harvard, he was a long-time friend and confidant of Theodore Roosevelt. Lodge had the role (but not the official title) of the first Senate Majority Leader. He is best known for his positions on foreign policy, especially his battle with President Woodrow Wilson in 1919 over the Treaty of Versailles. Lodge demanded Congressional control of declarations of war; Wilson refused and blocked Lodge's move to ratify the treaty with reservations. As a result the United States never joined the League of Nations. [more]
